Pace University is currently the only University in Manhattan to offer a major in Peace and Justice Studies. This unique program merges the field’s theoretical principles with the practical experience in New York City and beyond. Pace’s PJS major is centered around three fundamental pillars—research, action, and education. They draw on the vibrancy of the city, the expertise of their faculty and the passion of our students to create a community that is centered on sustainability, intersectionality, and transformation on local, national, and international levels.
This program is an interdisciplinary major. It examines direct, structural, symbolic and environmental violence; social justice; theories and practice of nonviolence and conflict transformation; conflict resolution techniques including negotiation, mediation, and facilitation; and interdisciplinary perspectives on peace building and peace making. This program reflects Pace University's commitment to theory and practice in this interdisciplinary field and is consistent with the University's institutional mission of civic engagement and global citizenship.
